Yikes, Robo. I hope I didn't give the impression that I want Sarah Palin elected! I'm only afraid that her pretty face will blind some people to her stances.
If Knowles had not been on the ballot I would have voted for Eric Croft. I voted for Knowles on the basis that he is a known quantity. Although he holds some positions I don't agree with- ANWR, the oil industry, etc - I believe he is honest and I KNOW that he listens.
And just maybe his being an oilman gives him a margin of credibility to some voters outside his party.
There is no way I want Sarah Palin to be governor. The groups I have been talking with are in agreement that we have to get her to articulate her stand on issues so those positions can be attacked and dissected.
Because the fact is that she drew FAR more votes overall than Knowles did.
